A password manager is a crucial tool for anyone, really, but especially students going back to school in the fall. If you're one of them, you probably have more logins to remember now than ever before. 1Password is having a notable back-to-school sale right now that can take the anxiety out of remembering all your credentials.
Both Individual and Families plans have been discounted: the former is down to just $18 for a year, while the latter will run you $30 for the year. The plans are nearly identical in terms of features, but the Families plan accommodates five additional people. Just note that only new 1Password customers can get this deal, and the sale price only applies to the first year of access. The deal runs through September 12.
This provider actually topped our list of the best password managers, and for good reason. We appreciated the intuitive interface and the fact that it's available on most platforms, so you'll never be left out in the cold. These include Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, macOS, iOS, Windows, Android and more.
Subscriptions include industry standard encryption and a "secret key" that only you know on top of a master password. There's also two-factor authentication and the platform issues alerts when credentials have potentially been compromised.
The only downside here is the one that accompanies many password managers. There is no free version. Obviously, this won't be an issue for the year, but it could once the plan runs out.
